Fort Worth, Texas, May 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Volvo Autonomous Solutions (V.A.S.) and DSV mark the start of autonomous freight operations in Texas, with the first commercial truckload hauled using the Volvo VNL Autonomous, and with the ambition to expand to additional lanes over time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Designed from the ground up for autonomous driving and integrated with the Aurora Driver, the Volvo VNL Autonomous is built for deployment in long-haul freight operations. The collaboration builds on the long-standing relationship between Volvo and DSV, grounded in safety, performance and progress toward transforming logistics. With DSV as the market-leading logistics provider, the collaboration also shows how autonomous transport can be integrated into complex, large-scale logistics networks to strengthen efficiency, asset utilization and supply chain resilience.\u00a0<\/p>\n

V.A.S. is launching autonomous transport services for DSV between Aurora\u2019s terminals in Dallas and Houston, integrating them into DSV\u2019s existing\u00a0logistics\u00a0flows. During the\u00a0initial\u00a0phase, a safety driver will be present in the vehicle, in line with Volvo\u2019s current operational mode. Through the collaboration, DSV and V.A.S. aim to strengthen day-to-day performance while building operational experience that supports expansion to\u00a0additional\u00a0routes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cAutonomous driving is moving towards real-world operations,\u201d said Helmut Schweighofer, CEO, DSV Road. \u201cOur collaboration with Volvo in Texas\u00a0represents\u00a0a production, depot-to-depot setup. We see clear opportunities to improve safety and driver comfort, help mitigate a growing driver shortage, and unlock better asset\u00a0utilization\u00a0through 24\/7 operations for the benefit of our customers.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cLogistics providers like DSV are an important customer group for Volvo Autonomous Solutions, and DSV is at the forefront of how autonomous transport can be applied in real logistics networks,\u201d says Sasko Cuklev, Head of On-Road Solutions at V.A.S. \u201cStarting between Dallas and Houston, we plan to move freight together in a way that supports round-the-clock operations and creates a scalable foundation for adding more lanes over time.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Autona\/freight: A complete autonomous transport ecosystem\u00a0
As part of the collaboration, Volvo Autonomous Solutions will deploy its\u00a0Autona\/freight solution for DSV.\u00a0Autona\/freight is Volvo\u2019s end to end autonomous transport setup, combining the Volvo VNL Autonomous with\u00a0self-driving\u00a0technology from partners Aurora and\u00a0Waabi, as well as the systems and services needed to\u00a0operate\u00a0and manage autonomous freight at scale.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

With more than one million miles logged in regional and local freight since 2023, V.A.S. brings significant operational experience that supports reliable scaling with\u00a0logistics\u00a0providers like DSV.\u00a0<\/p>\n
